Our team will take any excuse to talk about the best places to grab a delicious bite, so even though this guide was written with 4/20 in mind, we think it’s helpful whether you’re indulging in celebration or you just love a good snack. Here are some of our favorites around the city broken up into three categories.
Hand-held and to-go:
- Biscuit Bitch: Biscuits are kind of a contentious topic here – we’re definitely not serving southern style options – but Belltown’s Biscuit Bitch is open late, serves a mean gravy-smother biscuit and their sandwiches are a great late night grab and go.
- Morsel: On the other end of the spectrum, for you wake and bakers, Morsel’s stand-alone biscuits are a perfect start to the day and their Spanish Fly sandwich makes my mouth water just thinking about it.
- Cookie’s Country Kitchen: They have this bowl called C.C.C.K.F.C.F.B. which includes mashed potatoes, corn, cheese, gravy, and fried chicken. Doesn’t get much more munchie than that.
- Big Mario’s: Cheap-ish, quick, and the slice is the size of your head which is exactly how much pizza you’re gonna be craving.
- Some other portable favorites include:
- Yalla’s saj wraps
- Thanh Son Tofu and Bakery’s banh mi (1248 S King St)
- 45th Stop N Shop’s inari pockets
Late night options:
- Beth’s: We have to start with a Seattle classic, for those of you who missed it, Beth’s is open again. They’re not 24-hour anymore, but you can still get late night breakfast and for the daring (and rich) among us a 12-egg omelet.
- Purple Dot Cafe: Where else can you get french toast, dim sum or hot pot at midnight?
- Dick’s counts as late night, right? They’re open til 2am! And I’m always in the mood for a cheeseburger, fries, and a milkshake. Especially if I’m out that late.
- Other top contenders include:
- Hattie’s Hat: Another breakfast for dinner classic in a place where (if you’re feeling paranoid) no one will look at you twice
- Fort St. George: Giant spaghetti bowl with an omelet on the side, anyone?
Sweet and salty:
- The Boat: I’m kind of always craving the pandan waffles from The Boat with their signature salted coconut whip. So! Good!
- Met Market: Supermarket sushi aside, another classic, of course, is The Cookie. Just make sure you have a napkin for all that melted chocolate.
- Twilight Exit: I don’t know what makes the tots at Twilight Exit so good, but they’re fried to perfection.
- Matcha Man’s cherry dole whip soft served in a taiyaki cone is worth the journey to Georgetown.
- Saint Bread: The doubutsu fries at Saint Bread are unreal.
- Mainstay Provisions: Ashley is a big evangelist for all things Mainstay Provisions. She recommends their pizza, soft serve, and brownies. They have everything.
- Uwajimaya: Another place that has everything! Spam musubi, fried chicken, ramen, sushi, the good KitKats, and so much more.
